For Hennah, moving from London to Dallas challenged her idea of “home” as she began to make a life abroad as a newlywed. And while her pregnancy offered a respite from rigid perfectionism and resolved long-standing body image issues, she struggled with prenatal depression as she tried to make sense of how to navigate motherhood thousands of miles away from her friends and family. If you’re ready to hear how Hennah was able to rediscover a sense of belonging, don’t wait to tune into this raw and honest conversation that inspired the makings of this entire podcast.
Note: Hennah’s blog, Londoner Lost in Texas, is currently on hold while she pursues a new career role. We’ll let you know when it relaunches!
” When I was struggling… everyone would say, ‘Don’t tell anyone.’ And this is where anxiety, Postpartum Depression and shame are given the most beautiful breeding ground. Why would we want to do that to moms who have just given birth to our future?”
